Essence is sharing the first look of Parker’s new book,

have on our life and the lives of people around the world,” Curry told Essence exclu- sively.
“I was excited and hopeful that she would experience some degree of the admira- tion and inspiration that I knew would stir inside of me seeing a portrait of such an accomplished, dynamic, and regal woman,” she added.
